So it seems it probably has a **** tune, a **** driver with a **** cam that doesn't match anything that's goin on.

That's just it.....the ones with knowledge know where to look.
The speculatirs think a cam is worth 1sec in the qtr and a 200shot is always worth 200 no matter what. So that speculation aline puts that c6 at solid 10s cam only........likely faster tgan 10.5. Then a 200 shot would have it running mid 9s or faster.

It's going to be interesting once I get my car tuned. Been down several years and now has a new set of TSP - 247 heads. Before the breakdown, easily beat a Fastlane Kenny Bell Supercharged Stang on 610 in H Town on 16 degrees of timing and no NoS. Of course, a 410 gear with a 6 speed helps a lot. Since then, the world changed with basically you name it and it's out there. Hellcats, Demons, ZL1's, etc..... No longer in H-Town and around here are McLaren's, Lambo's, Ferrari's, Tesla's.........No telling at this point, but do hope to keep it on the down and low as I don't want my car taken for street racing.

Posted because it's my first day back since 2009. Hated to see a Vette get taken that bad by a Hellcat and TT 5.0 Low compression - well we all know what that's for, or at least I hope we do. Mine, Not low compression - big cam, crazy sound, Nitrous 250 shot, etc. A similar Camaro with less ci and same NoS turned a 9.95 @ 137 mph..... Well, I'm very curious to see how mine will compare to the latest and greatest - Hellcats, TT Stang's, ZL1's and whomever else. It's going to be interesting for sure.

yeah I wasn't saying anything is wrong with the ls3 just saying a lot of people make such a safe tune they seem to under perform, that's on both sides of the line. I've witnessed a few underperforming 5.0s as well. power adders take extra effort and testing to get the most potential out of. I know of a built nitrous ls1 running cam only times because he doesn't tune his own car and his tuner is being safe with it.
